On behalf of the Organizing Committee I would like to thank all guests and participants of the 1st Audiologic-Phoniatric Conference in Warsaw for their participation.

The Boards of Audiologic and Phoniatric Sections of the Polish Society of Otorhinolaryngologists and Head and Neck Surgeons took a decision on joint scientific meeting as a natural consequence of the fact that a basic specialty - Audiology and Phoniatry came into being several years ago.

The team of the Institute of Physiology and Pathology of Hearing has been honored to organize the first general scientific conference in this area, to which over 110 papers had been submitted.

During the conference, there had been held plenary sessions assisted with a group of 20 eminent and respected scientists, Polish and foreign, representing various areas of audiology and phoniatry, accompanied by lecture, paper, poster and satellite sessions, as well as workshops.

I am convinced that in the rich program of the conference you had found interesting issues, and it was also a great opportunity to discuss the recent personal achievements. I hope that the joint meeting was a great opportunity to exchange information on the recent achievements in both medical fields, as well as a chance of getting to know each other better.

I would like to express my gratitude to the main co-organizers of the Conference and to the medical companies for participating in that event.

On behalf of the Organizing Committee

Prof. Henryk Skarżyński, M.D., Ph.D
